Author’s Note:

This story is dedicated to the spirit of my great-great-grandmother, who, against all odds, survived the brutal march known as the Trail of Tears. Her courage and strength are woven into every word of this tale. It is also a tribute to the countless men, women, and children whose lives were lost in that dark chapter of history—souls who were uprooted from their lands and dreams, yet whose spirit endures in the heart of every Cherokee. This is for those who survived, and for the tens of thousands who did not, that their legacy of resilience and hope may forever shine brightly, lighting the path forward for all of us.
